    About this ebook

    We set off to crack the code for meaningful conversation…a plan that would move our communication from good to great. And we found it. A deep and simple plan for everything a loving conversation has to offer. We call it Love Talk. —Drs. Les and Leslie Parrot

    This women’s workbook will help you personalize the concepts you encounter in the Parrotts’ book Love Talk and put them to work in your relationships. Inside, you’ll find exercises, assessments, self-tests, tips, applications…all the tools and guidance you need to

    • Identify your personal communication style
    • Understand how it interacts with that of your partner
    • Talk your way to a healthier, stronger relationship

    Love Talk is like no other communication book you’ve ever read. The fruit of years of research by two foremost relationship experts (who also happen to be husband and wife), this book forges a new path to the heart of loving conversation. You’ll begin by identifying your security need and determining your personal communication style. Then you’ll put together everything you discover to learn how the two of you can speak each other’s language like never before.

    This very day, you can begin an adventure in communication that will draw the two of you closer, and closer, and close…consistently, in a way that creates the depth and connection you long for in your relationship.

      A LETTER TO OUR READERS

      We’ve always enjoyed this quote from comedian Woody Allen: "I took a speed reading course and read War and Peace in twenty minutes. It involves Russia."

      Ever felt like that after reading a book? We have. Sometimes it becomes so easy to focus on finishing a book that we miss its main message. What you hold in your hand is a kind of insurance policy against that happening while you are reading Love Talk. But it’s more than that.

      Books let us shake hands with new ideas. But these ideas remain as flat as the printed page if we do not apply them to our lives. For this reason, we have designed workbooks—one for men and one for women—that will help you incorporate into your relationship the new lessons you learn while reading. And we’ve designed them to be used either individually or in a small group setting.

      Additionally, we want to help you generate a customized map—made just for the two of you—to explore exactly how you can maximize your marriage and enjoy lifelong love together. So we want you to know about our Better Love Assessment. It’s designed to augment the Love Talk study and works beautifully with the Love Talk book and workbooks.

      But let’s be clear: This assessment is not required in order for you to benefit from reading Love Talk and working through the workbooks. The materials and the assessment work completely
